Accommodation
Stay where the festival guests stay. Warsaw Presidential Hotel is one of the most iconic hotels in Poland: for decades this landmark was the residence of heads of state and world leaders, and today, as an independent five-star hotel, it carries that legacy forward. All 521 rooms and suites sit from the 20th floor upwards, with a wellness area with a heated pool and saunas, right next to the city's key business, shopping and cultural hotspots. Kinoteka, the festival's cinema at the Palace of Culture, is about 500 metres away.
